CITY AS A FIELD OF CONFLICTS AND THE SPACES OF CRIME: a look at the theft in Altamira – PA, in the period 2010-2015CIUDAD COMO CAMPO DE CONFLICTOS Y LOS ESPACIOS DE CRIMEN: un vistazo al robo en Altamira/PA en el período 2010-2015RESUMONo artigo, o mote é dissertar sobre a violência e a cidade como propostas para estudos geográficos na Amazônia. Especificamente no contexto de especulação e de construção da Usina Hidroelétrica Belo Monte, no município de Vitória do Xingu/Pará, mas que detém a cidade de Altamira como centro concentrador dos benefícios e dos malefícios materializados pela expansão capitalista, principalmente por causa do avanço nos índices de furto. O constructo metodológico quanti-qualitativo possibilitou sistematizar dados secundários oficiais e entrevistas sobre o cotidiano vivido pela população local. A ideia é tratar a variável furto como índice de criminalidade, marca da insegurança como processo na estruturação da cidade contemporânea.Palavras-chave: Violência Urbana; Amazônia; Espaço.ABSTRACTIn the article, the motto is to lecture about violence and the city as proposals for geographic studies in the Amazon. Specifically in the context of speculation and construction of the Belo Monte Hydroelectric Power Plant in the city of Vitória do Xingu/Pará, but that holds the city of Altamira as the hub of the benefits and harms materialized by capitalist expansion. The quantitative-qualitative methodological construct made it possible to systematize official secondary data and interviews about the daily life experienced by the local population. The idea is to treat the variable theft as index of crime brand of insecurity as process in the structuring of the contemporary city.Keywords: Urban Violence; Amazon; Space.RESUMENEn el artículo, el lema es discutir la violencia y la ciudad como propuestas de estudios geográficos en el Amazon.

BELO MONTE HYDROELECTRIC POWER PLANT AND THE ROLE OF AGENTS IN RESTRUCTURING OF THE CITY OF ALTAMIRA-PAUSINA HIDROELÉCTRICA DE BELO MONTE Y EL PAPEL DE LOS AGENTES EN LA REESTRUCTURACIÓN DE LA CIUDAD DE ALTAMIRA-PARESUMOEste artigo tem como objetivo analisar o papel dos agentes produtores do espaço urbano na cidade de Altamira-PA após a instalação da Usina Hidrelétrica de Belo Monte. O trabalho se propõe a estudar as mudanças nas localizações dos espaços que compõem a cidade, como o centro urbano e novas áreas residenciais produzidas na periferia, resultando em um processo de reestruturação da cidade. Portanto, busca-se evidenciar como as empresas, o Estado, os agentes fundiários, os grupos imobiliários e a população excluída agem para a obtenção de seus objetivos. O método utilizado é o materialismo histórico e dialético e a fonte de dados foi obtida com base em trabalhos de campo, relatórios da Norte Energia S.A e fontes de organizações sociais como FVPP. Como resultados, evidencia-se o impacto da instalação desse empreendimento de grande porte em Altamira-PA, produzindo redefinições que estão baseadas na relação entre diferentes agentes públicos e privados. A reestruturação da cidade a partir da instalação da hidrelétrica gerou como consequência a expansão imobiliária e novas infraestruturas que pouco favorecem à população atingida e os mais pobres da cidade.Palavras-chave: Hidrelétrica de Belo Monte; Agentes Produtores do Espaço Urbano; Localizações Residenciais.ABSTRACTThis article aims to analyze the role of urban space producing agents in the city of Altamira-PA after the installation of the Belo Monte Hydroelectric Plant. The work aims to study the changes in the locations of the spaces that make up the city, such as the urban center and new residential areas produced in the periphery, resulting in a process of restructuring the city. Therefore, it seeks to show how companies, the State, land agents, real estate groups and the excluded population act to achieve their goals. The method used is historical and dialectical materialism and the data source was obtained based on fieldwork, reports by Norte Energia S.A and sources from social organizations such as FVPP. As a result, the impact of installing this large undertaking in Altamira-PA is evident, producing redefinitions that are based on the relationship between different public and private agents. The restructuring of the city after the installation of the Hydroelectric Power Plant resulted in the expansion of real estate and new infrastructures that do little to favor the affected population and the poorest population of the city.Keywords: Belo Monte Hydroelectric; Urban Space Producing Agents; Residential Locations.RESUMENEste artículo tiene como objetivo analizar el papel de los agentes productores de espacio urbano en la ciudad de Altamira-PA tras la instalación de la Central Hidroeléctrica de Belo Monte.

Abstract This work analyzes the performance of stakeholders and advocacy coalitions in processes of gradual institutional change based on the case study of the Belo Monte hydroelectric power plant. The methodology adopts content analysis, using shorthand notes of hearings held in the National Congress, and other publicly available documents. In-depth semi-structured interviews were also conducted, collecting data from individuals involved in the history of the power plant. The study allowed to characterize stakeholders pro or against the enterprise, observing their degree of influence and the role played. In addition, the work used the Advocacy Coalition Framework to verify how stakeholders formed three advocacy coalitions and exerted the strategies of institutional change ‘displacement,’ ‘conversion,’ and ‘layering’ following the gradual and transformative institutional change model. Empirical evidence indicates that the composition of coalition members may determine the type of institutional change and that institutional changes can also result from learning among coalitions, as the incorporation of socio-environmental considerations that have altered the original design of the hydroelectric power plant.

One form of water energy utilization is done by building a Hydroelectric Power Plant (PLTA) in Indonesia, the Bakaru PLTA is one of the projects within PT. PLN (Persero). This project is a Hydro Power Plant Master project with a SULSELRABAR transmission located 246 km from the city of Makassar. The operation of the Bakaru hydropower system is certainly expected to work optimally, reliably and efficiently. Therefore, evaluation or data on the performance of the generator itself is needed. This study was conducted to determine the condition of the Bakaru hydropower plant based on the equivalent availability factor (EAF) and Net Capacity Factor (NCF) and Cost of Production (BPP). The data used is operating data on the Bakaru hydropower plant for 1 year. The data was obtained by using the documentation technique, while the data analysis was carried out using the Microsoft Excel program. After conducting research, it can be concluded that the condition of the Bakaru hydropower plant in 2017 is considered normal, seen from the EAF value reaching 94.15% and the average EFOR value of 2.4% with the number of Service Hours (SH) of 16,912.93 hours from 2 units. with the percentage of Service Hours to Period Hours reaching 96.53%. Meanwhile, the Net Capacity Factor of the Bakaru hydropower plant in 2017 reached 85.83%, with a total gross energy production of 945,372.50 MWh. This value exceeds the target that has been set.

Este artigo descreve o cenário que envolve a pesca e suas nuances no lago artificial da hidrelétrica de Tucuruí-Pa (Brasil). Enfatiza as contradições no acesso e uso dos recursos pesqueiros que permeiam realidades bastante antagônicas: um grupo que realiza a pesca esportiva por diversão e lazer e outro de pescadores artesanais que busca o sustento nesta atividade, principal fonte de renda e de alimento. Os procedimentos metodológicos primaram pela investigação junto aos pescadores no interior do lago por meio de trabalho de campo e compilação de dados secundários em três municípios que detêm a maior produção de pesca (Tucuruí, Nova Jacundá e Novo Repartimento) dos sete que envolvem o lago. Tece análise a partir das políticas de ecoturismo, da pesca esportiva e da pesca artesanal. Utiliza-se da categoria memória coletiva para descrever o ambiente aquático anterior ao lago e compreender de que forma esta memória contribui para os pescadores locais e os imigrantes no processo de adaptação e criação de novas práticas para acesso e uso dos recursos pesqueiros. O artigo conclui que a pesca esportiva, concebida como uma atividade de ecoturismo desenvolvida em um ambiente fortemente impactado impõe uma nova dinâmica aos pescadores artesanais, demandando dos mesmos a informação sobre a localização dos pontos de pesca e a geografia do lago. Por outro lado, o pescador artesanal passa a se relacionar com a sociedade maior através do seu saber, estabelecendo uma relação com o mercado mediada por um novo produto: o saber sobre a própria atividade da pesca. Sport fishing and artisanal fishing: Leisure and subsistence at the Tucuruí (PA, Brazil) hydroelectric power plant AABSTRACT This article describes the context related to fishing and its nuances at the artificial lake at the hydroelectric power plant of Tucuruí (PA, Brazil). The article emphasizes the contradictions in the access and use of fishing resources of quite antagonistic realities: a group involved in sport fishing for recreation and leisure and another group of artisanal fishermen that carry out the activity as their main form of subsistence, source of income and food supply. The methodological procedures focused mainly on an investigation with lake fishermen by means of a fieldwork and the compilation of secondary data in 3 of the 7 municipalities that sorround the lake. The municipalities of Tucuruí, Nova Jacundá and Novo Repartimento present the major fishing production in the area. The article also develops and analysis based on ecotourism policies, sport fishing and artisanal fishing. The category collective memory is used to describe the aquatic environment before the creation of the lake and understand how this form of memory contributes to local fishermen and immigrants in the process of adaptation and creation of new practices for the access and use of fishing resources. The study concludes that sport fishing, conceived as an ecotourism activity developed in an environment that is greatly impacted imposes a new dynamic to artisanal fishermen, demanding from them the information about the localization of the fishing spots and the geography of the lake. On the other hand, artisanal fishermen develop a form of relationship with society through its knowledge, establishing a relation with the market mediated by a new product: the knowledge about the fishing activity itself..

A exploração hidroelétrica promove impactos naturais e sociais irreversíveis, também observados nas bacias hidrográficas amazônicas que receberam as Usinas Hidrelétricas de Balbina, Tucuruí e Samuel. A Usina Hidrelétrica de Belo Monte (UHEBM) está sendo construída desde 2011 no Baixo Curso do Rio Xingu e começou a produzir energia elétrica no ano de 2016. Os barramentos construídos para UHEBM impactam na dinâmica do fluxo fluvial de energia, matéria e informação do Rio Xingu, com desdobramentos negativos para o meio biótico, abiótico e para as comunidades indígenas, ribeirinhas e urbanas locais. Nesta pesquisa teve-se objetivo de analisar as consequências da exploração hidroelétrica no funcionamento das paisagens fluviais no Baixo Rio Xingu, através de análises geossistêmicas dos componentes das paisagens. Analisou-se o funcionamento antes do início do represamento da água (1985 a 2014) e após o represamento do Xingu (2016 a 2019). As conclusões indicam como se dá o funcionamento geoecológico de rios amazônicos explorados por hidrelétricas, especificamente aqueles com trechos de vazão reduzida. Essas conclusões podem contribuir no planejamento e gestão ambiental de paisagens fluviais e ajustes na operação da UHE Belo Monte. Repercussion of Hydrielectric Exploration in the Geoecolocical Performance of Amazon Fluvian Landscapes   ABSTRACT  Hydroelectric exploitation promotes irreversible natural and social impacts, also observed in the Amazonian basins that received the hydroelectric plants of Balbina, Tucuruí, and Samuel. The Belo Monte Hydroelectric Power Plant (UHEBM) is in construction since 2011 in the low-lying region of the Xingu River and started producing electricity in the year 2016. The dams built for the UHEBM impact on the dynamics of the river flow of energy, matter and information on the river Xingu with negative consequences for the biotic and abiotic environment, and for the indigenous, riverside and urban communities. The research’s objective was to analyze the consequences of hydroelectric exploitation on the river landscape in the lower Xingu River through geosystemic analysis of landscape components. The operation was analyzed in the period before the beginning of the water dam (1985 to 2014) and after (2016 to 2019) the damming of Xingu. The conclusions indicate the geoecological functioning of Amazonian rivers explored by hydroelectric plants, specifically those with reduced flow stretches, and these conclusions can contribute to the planning and environmental management of river landscapes and adjustments in the operation of the Belo Monte Hydroelectric Power Plant. Keywords: Belo Monte, Volta Grande do Xingu, Hydrogeography, Fluvial Geomorphology.

While the region of the Middle and Lower Xingu has been a protagonist during many episodes of Brazilian history, it remains unknown to a large cross-section of society. Within this perspective, we have revealed some of the different elements responsible for the production of regional space by joining theoretical exercise with empirical, which signifies combining some of the knowledge that has been produced on the region with the discourse of some of the different agents involved in its transformation. Accordingly, the following processes were adopted as markers: colonization, the opening of the Trans-Amazonian, land conflicts and the construction of the Belo Monte Hydroelectric Power Plant. As part of this collective effort, based on interviews with the central institutions (from the First, Second and Third sectors), and with communities from different locations within the region, this article gathers together arguments that contribute to the debate regarding the accumulated processes in the Brazilian Amazon, and particularly in the Middle and Lower Xingu.
